Sylvania 16W U-Shaped T8 Fluorescent Tube
The Sylvania 21726 FBO16/865XP is a 16-watt U-shaped T8 fluorescent tube with a medium bi-pin G13 base. It produces a 6500K cool white light using 800 Series Octron Ecologic Extended Performance phosphors. The lamp measures 10.5 inches and is designed for fixtures that accept curved T8 lamps.
Sustained Output and Lamp Life
Extended Performance engineering maintains lumen output over the rated life rather than only at initial ignition. The 800 Series phosphors resist mercury absorption, so colour consistency at 6500K remains stable during continuous operation. Buyers who need dimmable control or instant restrike after power loss should verify ballast compatibility before purchase.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 16 watt tube produce during all-day use?
A 16 watt fluorescent tube converts most input power into light, so its surface stays warm rather than hot during continuous operation.
What fixture does the G13 medium bi-pin base require?
The G13 medium bi-pin base fits standard T8 fluorescent fixtures with matching lampholders and a compatible ballast.
